The miniature vegetables cultivated by India and Pei can be used by soldiers guarding the border in the future
According to the Hindustan Times reported on the 5th, the Indian Institute of defense high altitude has cultivated miniature vegetables that can be easily planted and eaten by soldiers in the future.
It is reported that Indian soldiers guarding the border usually get supplies only once a year, and most of them are canned food, lacking the supply of fresh vegetables.
After variety improvement, researchers have cultivated cabbage, radish and vanilla into 'mini vegetables', which do not need to be exposed to the sun. They just need to be placed in a warmer environment and planted in shallow culture soil for 8-10 days.
Researcher kessilar said, 'micro vegetables' are even more nutritious than many vegetables. These vegetables can not only supplement trace elements and vitamins for soldiers who usually eat canned food, but also boost morale.
'mini vegetables' are still in the experimental stage, and pilot projects are being carried out in some areas. A senior officer who asked not to be named admitted that if they can be cultivated in large quantities, they can be used as the best nutritional supply for front-line soldiers.
